In many cases, sports injuries can be managed through rehabilitative therapies at the Thomasville Medical Center Rehabilitation Medicine Center. Our sports medicine program is maintained by physical therapists who specialize in musculoskeletal exercise and sports-related conditions and are trained to help patients regain their strength and achieve their highest level of function.
However, if an injury requires surgical treatment, you can count on the orthopaedic experts at Thomasville Medical Center to care for you with the same advanced techniques used to treat professional athletes. This includes minimally invasive arthroscopy and laser surgery on an outpatient basis in order to help accelerate your recovery. If necessary, we provide case managers to help coordinate post-operative care, including rehabilitation services.
Our orthopaedic surgeons work closely with a variety of other clinical professionals in order to specifically address patients' individual needs. Recreational and professional athletes can both expect to receive the same expert care at Thomasville Medical Center to help them get back to their games as soon as possible.
